About Olivia Wilde
Before becoming successful in films like Turistas and Tron: Legacy, she enjoyed a close relationship with Mischa Barton on The O.C. Olivia Wilde, an Irish-American beauty, won over a horde of geeky fanboys as the lead in TRON: Legacy. Olivia Wilde is arguably most known for her girl-on-girl kiss with Mischa Barton and for portraying a bisexual doctor on House. To the dismay of her many fans, this down-to-earth chick is actually a one-man sort of girl off-screen.
Going Wilde
Olivia Jane Cockburn, who was born in New York City to journalists, was a well-educated child. Olivia spent her summers studying at the Gaiety School of Acting in Dublin after relocating to Washington, D.C. (her father is Irish, and she has a fantastic Irish accent).
Olivia Wilde (after Oscar Wilde) changed her last name after graduating from the Phillips Academy boarding high school in Andover, Massachusetts. She then moved to Los Angeles and was offered an internship with a casting director who was working on the teen movie The Girl Next Door.
However, the director failed to notice Olivia working behind the camera and instead handed her a small part in the Elisha Cuthbert and Emile Hirsch-starring movie. In the same year, 2004, Olivia landed a recurring part on the wildly popular program The O.C.
Olivia first auditioned for Barton’s leading role as Marissa Cooper, but she was ultimately cast in a role that brought her closer to Mischa’s character: she was Mischa’s love interest for a season of the show.
The People’s Princess
Olivia went on to land parts in movies like Year One (2008), Turistas (2006), and Alpha Dog (2006), in which she once again appeared alongside Hirsch (2009). Olivia’s name started to appear on various megawatt marquees, and she also frequently appeared on lists of “best dressed” and on the red carpet.
Olivia returned to televisions in 2007 thanks to her portrayal of Remy “Thirteen” Hadley, a bisexual psychiatrist who suffers from a terminal illness, in the television series House.
But before her meteoric rise to fame, in 2003, Olivia married Tao Ruspoli, a singer and director who was also the son of an Italian prince.
Olivia was officially an Italian princess, but the couple—who said their spontaneous “I dos” on a crazy school bus—were anything but your typical aristocrats. But after several months of living apart, the couple decided to dissolve their relationship in February 2011.
More than ever, the exotic beauty is thinking about the future, as shown by her 2010 performance in Tron: Legacy. We’ve been known to predict the future, and we believe Ms. Wilde’s future is pretty promising.
